Journal ArticleDOI
The comparative amnestic effects of midazolam, propofol, thiopental, and fentanyl at equisedative concentrations.
TL;DR: At equal sedation, propofol produces the same degree of memory impairment as midazolam while thiopental has mild memory effects whereas fentanyl has none.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical and Echocardiographic Correlates of Symptomatic Tachydysrhythmias After Noncardiac Thoracic Surgery
David Amar,Nancy Roistacher,Michael E. Burt,Ruth A. Reinsel,Robert J. Ginsberg,Roger S. Wilson +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that increased right heart pressure but not fluid overload or right heart enlargement predisposes to clinically significant SVT after pulmonary resection and early interventions to reduceright heart pressure may decrease the incidence of postoperative SVT and potentially improve overall surgical outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Midazolam Changes Cerebral Blood Flow in Discrete Brain Regions: An H2-15O Positron Emission Tomography Study
Robert A. Veselis,Ruth A. Reinsel,Bradley J. Beattie,Osama Mawlawi,Vladimir A. Feshchenko,Gene R. DiResta,Steven M. Larson,Ronald G. Blasberg +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of midazolam on regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) was determined using statistical parametric mapping with localization to standard stereotactic coordinates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Propofol-Induced Alpha Rhythm
TL;DR: The electroencephalographic effects of two intravenous sedative/hypnotic drugs, propofol and thiopental, were studied at three stable blood concentrations in 52 normal healthy volunteers and strong frontal-central rhythms apparent in this state are described using a quantitative description of oscillatory systems underlying the rhythm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thiopental and propofol affect different regions of the brain at similar pharmacologic effects.
Robert A. Veselis,Vladimir A. Feshchenko,Ruth A. Reinsel,Ann M. Dnistrian,Bradley J. Beattie,Tim Akhurst +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used positron emission tomography (PET) images to identify changes in regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and found that propofol has a greater amnesic effect than thiopental.
